A rare and exceptional find — a matched set of six antique Swedish Neoclassical three-arm wall sconces, beautifully crafted in gilt bronze and adorned with cascading cut crystal prisms. These elegant sconces are designed after German designer and architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, a key figure in 19th-century Neoclassicism.
This exquisite set features:
• Four sconces that have been professionally French-wired for electricity
• Two sconces that remain in their original candle configuration for a more traditional presentation
Originally sourced from a distinguished Manhattan estate, these wall lights combine architectural grace with fine craftsmanship. Perfect for restoration projects, luxury interiors, or collectors of European decorative arts.
